Marcus Pettersson -- 1,155,000
Stig Rune Kveen -- 3,890,000
They just announced Stig as the New Norwegian Poker Champion
He also last year won the Norwegian Championship in the relay-event of nordic skiing!

What an overachiever.
Here he just took 250k off Marcus by raising him all in on a 2-Q-9 flop... but after that it's been Pass the Blinds for about 10 minutes.

As we have temporarily ( I think) lost our video link, we are just re-arrranging ourselves so we catch all the hands.
Jen has some info on this but for now, enjoy these shots of the heads up battle between The Swede and The Norwegian.

Stig raises preflop, Marcus announces all in, and quick as you like he's called and the cards are over:
for the all-in Marcus vs
for Stig...
Flop:
Turn:
River:
There's a little bit of quiet until the Norwegians in the room realise that the river might have paired the Swede, but it also pared him, as the flush finished off the shorter stacked player -
Marcus Petterson
, OUT in
2nd
for
£39,836 or 398,467.04 NOK
...
But crowned
Stig Rune Kveen
the
Norwegian Champion, 2008
, winning him
£70,362
!
or 703,809.07 NOK

While JC gets the final pictures, and the winner gets mobbed by some very relieved Norwegians, I just want to reiterate how smoothly the whole thing has been run here. 514 runners, innumerable crates of vodka, food at all hours and dealers working long hours to accommodate the phenomenal demand for any and everything poker related, and it went pretty much without a hitch.
As I hear a champagne cork pop somewhere behind me (probably not the last tonight) I am sure that this won't be the last big event held here.

So that's it! We have our winner!
Some final shots to wrap what has been an immensely enjoyable event up.
This is what the 514 entrants were playing for. The shiny trophy and the enticing wads of cash...
But in the words of the highlander, there can be only one. This one, Stig Rune Kveen, posing with his new booty!!!
Yes with that final flourish, Kveen is KING!!!!
And a final mention also to the swede, Marcus Pettersson, whose superb performance netted him £39,836, and even the grudging respect of those naughty Norwegians who were booing him earlier!
Pettersson couldn't have done much better son...

So the tournament finishes in thrilling, climactic fashion, a fitting and worthy end to what has been a superbly run, superbly played, superbly enjoyable 5 days.
We've had a ball, the norwegians have had the time of their lives and quite frankly, I can't wait for the next one!
For now though, our journey is at an end, so thanks for following us but till next time...
